Terminal Services on Windows 2003 Small Business Server

Does anyone know how to setup 2003 small business server
for terminal services in application server mode? It
apparently is not like 2000 where you do it through
add/remove windows components. The only option i have
there is the Licensing.

TS in Application Mode is not supported on SBS 2003. It was on SBS 2000 but
by design, it was eliminated as an option for the local computer.
SBS 2003 still supports TS Licensing Server role and then a member server
can be installed in the SBS 2003 domain, and then have the member server be
placed in Application Mode.

And furthermore it's not safe to do TS on a domain controller so don't
even start yelling about how Microsoft chose Security over functionality.
